For the past 80 years Alfonso "Al" Marotta, the son of Italian immigrants who grew up in the famed Hartford East Side has been a leader in the Italian American community.
Past President of the State employees union, State Representative, Deputy Mayor of the city of Hartford, a go to person whenever you need help with the city. He truly represented his entire district and not just the rich and powerful.
A member of the board at MDC, the organizing force behind the Columbus Day celebrations for decades, a promoter of the Italian South End merchants , instrumental in the Floridia Hartford sister city agreement and more.
Truly a great Italian American.
Here is a video of the recent celebration of Al's 80th birthday!
